EPS Moulding Process
1. Pre-Expansion
- EPS Bead Preparation: Small polystyrene beads are prepared as the raw material.
- Expansion: The beads are heated with steam, causing them to expand significantly.
- Cooling: Expanded beads are cooled and dried.
2. Molding
- Mold Preparation: A mold with the desired shape is prepared.
- Bead Filling: Expanded beads are filled into the mold cavity.
- Heating and Fusion: Steam is injected into the mold, heating the beads and causing them to fuse together under pressure, forming the shape of the mold.
- Cooling: The molded product is cooled to solidify the EPS foam.
- Demolding: The finished product is removed from the mold.

How to mold EPS packaging?
EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) packaging is molded through a process involving heat and pressure.
Here’s a simplified steps of molding EPS packaging:
The EPS Molding Process
- Pre-Expanded Beads: EPS begins as small polystyrene beads. These beads are pre-expanded with steam to increase their volume.
- Mold Preparation: A mold with the desired shape of the packaging is prepared.
- Bead Filling: The pre-expanded beads are filled into the mold cavity.
- Heating and Expansion: Steam is introduced into the mold, heating the beads and causing them to expand further. The pressure within the mold forces the beads to fuse together, taking the shape of the mold.
- Cooling: The molded product is cooled to solidify the EPS foam.
- Demolding: The finished EPS packaging is removed from the mold.
Key Equipment
- Mold: The heart of the process, determining the shape of the final product.
- Steam Generator: Provides the steam for bead expansion and fusion.
- Vacuum System: Helps remove moisture and air from the mold.
- Cooling System: Cools the molded product to solidify the EPS.
Factors Affecting EPS Molding
- Mold Design: The accuracy and complexity of the mold directly impact the final product.
- Steam Pressure and Temperature: Precise control is essential for consistent results.
- Bead Density: The density of the pre-expanded beads affects the final product’s density and strength.
- Molding Cycle Time: The duration of the molding process influences productivity.
Note: The actual process can be more complex, involving advanced machinery and precise control systems to ensure product quality and efficiency.
